NO RESPONSE FROM HFM (HANDS FREE MODULE) - START/STOP



For a complete wiring diagram, refer to the Wiring Information.



Possible Causes

(A977) FUSED B(+) CIRCUIT OPEN OR SHORTED
(Z916) GROUND CIRCUIT OPEN
(D264) AND (D265) CAN INTERIOR BUS (125K) CIRCUITS OPEN
HANDS FREE MODULE

1. TEST FOR INTERMITTENT CONDITION




NOTE: Check for any TSB(s) related to the condition. If a TSB applies, perform the procedure outlined in the TSB before continuing.
1. Turn the ignition on.

NOTE: Make sure the battery voltage is between 10.0 and 16.0 volts.
2. With the scan tool, read the module status.

NOTE: Check the TIPM for any active CAN hardware DTCs, perform DTC before proceeding.


Does the scan tool indicate that the module is active on the bus?

Yes


No


2. CHECK THE (A977) FUSED B(+) CIRCUIT FOR AN OPEN OR SHORT



1. Turn the ignition off.
2. Disconnect the Hands Free Module harness connector.
3. Using a 12-volt test light connected to ground, check the (A977) Fused B(+) circuit.


Does the test light illuminate brightly?

Yes


No


3. CHECK THE (Z916) GROUND CIRCUIT FOR AN OPEN



1. Using a 12-volt test light connected to 12-volts, check the (Z916) Ground circuit.


Does the test light illuminate brightly?

Yes


No


4. CHECK THE (D265) AND (D264) CAN INTERIOR BUS (125K) CIRCUITS FOR AN OPEN



1. Disconnect the TIPM C7 harness connector.
2. Measure the resistance of the (D264) CAN Interior Bus (-) (125K) circuit between the TIPM C7 harness connector and the HFM harness connector.
3. Measure the resistance of the (D265) CAN Interior Bus (+) (125K) circuit between the TIPM C7 harness connector and the HFM harness connector.


Are the resistances below 5.0 Ohms for both circuits?

Yes


No
